The Flying Georgians ensemble from Tbilisi was founded by David Kikvadze and Jemal Natenadze in 1996. The troupe reveals the beauty and fiery passion of Georgian folklore in an inimitable way. The dancers perform solo dances, couple dances and group compositions, each of them demonstrating strength, agility, bounce and bold movements. These are the only folkloric dances in the world in which men dance on their toes, without the aid of "thumbs" typical of classical ballet. The Flying Georgians ensemble has participated in dozens of festivals in different countries: from Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and the USA, through 11 European countries to China.
